An engraving is a print that was made using an engraved printing plate. In printing, to engrave means to carve a pattern in a printing plate. The earliest known dated engraving is from 1446, so the technique is at least 560 years old. The basic process is to engrave the image on a metal plate, apply ink to the plate, wipe it so the ink only remains in the engraved lines, then press it onto paper to produce a print of the image.
